This was my first time building a project that had a drawer involved. It took me three attemts to get the drawer right and I ended up building internal wood slides for the drawer to sit on and a couple of stops to keep it from falling out or going too far back. Not having to deal with finicky drawer slides made it much easier for me. I think it looks nice and it really is the perfect height for next to a bed or chair.
The cuts are very simple but I don't know how I would have done this without a kreg jig. It made putting all the boards together so much easier and kept them tight and strong.
Built from Plan(s)
Estimated Cost
$20-$35, Mine was around 35 since I bought a nicer pine 2x2 for the legs and a pine 1x3. If I had used the common wood it would have dropped the price at least $10.
Estimated Time Investment
Afternoon Project (3-6 Hours)
Finish Used
Rustoleum primer 1 coat; Coat of Glidden Connecticut Blue (eggshell
Recommended Skill Level
Beginner
